Nestled along the sun-kissed shores of Tuscany, the Grand Hotel Principe di Piemonte has once again claimed its throne as a paragon of luxury. Crowned with the prestigious Luxury Lifestyle Award for Best Luxury Beachfront Hotel in Tuscany, this iconic establishment continues to weave a tapestry of timeless elegance and modern sophistication. Since its inception in 1922, the hotel has been a sanctuary for the discerning traveler, blending the charm of a bygone era with the finesse of contemporary indulgence.
At the heart of this coastal gem lies Il Piccolo Principe, a two-Michelin-starred restaurant that dances on the palate with every bite. Helmed by the visionary Chef Giuseppe Mancino, the menu is a symphony of Tuscan traditions and global inspirations, particularly influenced by his Asian sojourns. Guests can embark on a gastronomic journey through three meticulously crafted tasting menus: the Vegetarian Menu, the I Classici, and the Esperienza. Each dish is served on a sunlit veranda, where the sea whispers its secrets and the boulevard hums with life.
Perched high above the Riviera, the hotel’s rooftop pool is a sanctuary of serenity. Encased in glass, it offers a 360° panorama of the sky, sea, and the Apuan Alps—a view so breathtaking it feels like a dream. Whether basking in the summer sun or enjoying the heated waters in winter, guests are treated to an experience that transcends the ordinary. Adjacent to the pool, La Terrazza Bistrot serves up a medley of Tuscan delicacies, from light salads to classic pizzas, making it the perfect spot for an aperitivo as the sun dips below the horizon.
“This award is a testament to our team’s unwavering passion and dedication,” says Gianmaria Vitagliano, the hotel’s General Manager. “We strive to create more than just a stay—we craft an experience where history, culture, and luxury intertwine.” This sentiment is echoed by Alexander Chetchikov, CEO of Luxury Lifestyle Awards, who praises the hotel’s ability to blend historical grace with modern opulence, setting a benchmark in the world of hospitality.
As the Grand Hotel Principe di Piemonte celebrates this milestone, it remains steadfast in its mission to redefine luxury, ensuring every guest leaves with memories as enduring as the Tuscan sunsets.
